GOING ONE BETTER.
A Glasgow minister, on visiting one of his “poor” parishioners, a munition worker,, was startled to find she had invested in a new piano, which had cost her £4O. While contemplating the new purchase the woman informed the minister that it was bought "to go one better" than their neighbour over the stair, who had only paid £3O for hers. "But,” remonstrated the "can any of your household play the piano?" ‘ ‘ Oh, no, ’ ’ replied the woman, cheerfully; "but there’s a young follow coming in to-night to show us how it goes! "
